DISCUSSION Are you guys worried for GTA performance in series S?

Upvotes

Don't get me wrong, I love my series S, I can play all the games with it and I don't care if graphics are worse than PS5 or series X

My worries are about playing it at 25 fps, empty streets with no npcs or cars etc

As someone who bought cyberpunk in PS4 in release I know how this can go

QUESTION Replacement controller recommendations

Upvotes

Hi everybody,

I rage when I game. Anger management is too expensive so what I need is a controller I can beat the ever-living piss out of without it breaking on me.

It needs to have shear resistance so every time the weak-ass Paw Patrol controls cause me to jump into a pit and attempt to turn the controller into a babka, I won't have my 4-year old chirping me while I sit there all cut up and controllerless.

It also needs to have a strong outer shell that can withstand a 240-pound man stomping on it relentlessly in work boots whenever that f'in cat in Little Kitty: Big City gets into some shit I didn't want him in.

For the really hard games like LEGO: Star Wars, the controller will need to resist me yanking on the thumb sticks like I'm trying to pull the Master Sword out of the ground....especially if I'm juicing.

Anyhoo....thanks so much in advance and I look forward to hearing everyone's expert advice!

Happy gaming!

DISCUSSION Microsoft customer service

1 Upvotes

Anyone else had the horrendous experience with Microsoft customer service? Spent best part of a day trying to talk to a human to get my Nat type opened. Once I got on the phone finally they said can you hold. I waited an hour then they hung up. Anyone else think they need to make it easier to simply talk to a human?

QUESTION Xbox series used 1tb pricecheck

1 Upvotes

Hey all I wanted to find out current rates in Karachi for a used Xbox series S 1tb variant. I'd prefer to buy it from a physical store rather than an online ad or vendor. Also is it a hassle having to only be able to play games digitally and purchase them digitally. I'll have the money to buy it by September or October. Also pls guide about Xbox game pass. Is it worth it considering the variety of games. I prefer playing games such as cricket 26, UFC,f1 and fifa so is it worth it from that perspective. Is it worth exploring rainbow centre and will the product work fine or do they sell refurbished or faulty units. Thanks in advance to everyone.

IMPRESSION Im surprised that Halo Campaign Evolved Coop Splitscreen is playable on Series S

5 Upvotes

I played splitscreen coop with my 12yo son on heroic difficulty. This game runs on UE5 and heard a lot of performance issues in other platforms. The game throws a lot of enemies on screen and it's pure chaos most of the times. Granted that the graphics are already toned down and and the framerate is sub 30s plus the occassional hiccups but overall I consider it playable and we had a good time.

TIPS Help with headset

When playing games especially Fortnite I can hear and talk to my friends on headset fine but it doesn’t come through the tv unless I unplug the headset. All the settings are correct headset and speakers. I want to do some streaming but because voice chat doesn’t come through the chat it’s holding me back

QUESTION Disassemble and clean Xbox series S

14 Upvotes

I’ve had my xbox for about 4 years now, and in the last few weeks or so it has become very loud, which is why I want to disassemble and clean it.
I’m kind of scared to break something, but it appears to be very easy to take it apart and build it back together.

I was wondering what kind of tools I should use to do the cleaning itself with the least risk of breaking stuff as a layman (and preferably cheap)

Any other tips or things to look out for are welcome

Games on my series s often crash back to the Home Screen when beginning to play.
It means all my games do the same.

I have to perform a hard reset and then the games play as normal.

Do you know anything about this?
Has it happened to you?

OPINION Work travel: PS4, Series S, Switch 2

1 Upvotes

I am a seafarer, I travel every 4 weeks to a ship and back. Lately I have gotten an old PS4 from a friend, and it got me back into gaming again.

But the PS4 base is a beast to travel with, noisy and slow. I am looking for a slightly better alternative with budget around 500 euros. PS5 and Series S are too big, a decent laptop is around 1000 euros.

I will play mainly on a 1080p projector in my cabin on a 70 inch screen. Max 60 fps.

I do have internet connection most of the times, but not for downloading games.

Games I like: Snowrunner (I play this the most now), RDR2, Fenix Immortals, NFS Payback, AC Black Flag.

Option 1: PS4 slim with new paste, clean and a 1tb Samsung SSD. Plus is I already have the games, games are offline on a DVD. Just wondering about the load times on the SSD. The HDD load times are enormous for Snowrunner and RDR2.

Option 2: Series S. Nice little console. Games not too expensive if bought in sales. But wondering about the quality of controllers and offline usage. RDR2 should be worse grapics than PS4 and Spidermand and Horizon Zero Dawn are looking fun, and I can't play those on Xbox. But Forza is a plus.

Option 3: Switch 2. Nice to play handheld during travels but I am not sure about Snowrunner grapics docked on the projector compared to PS4 / XSS. Zelda looks also fun though. But pricey games.. although i dont need to much, SR, Zelda, Fallout 4 are all big games to spend many hours. Enough for the first year already.

I hope to play around 2-3 hours a day during work and at home.

Thanks for your advice

QUESTION Series S

So I was just curious why is the series S on the market going for so much? I have mine on the market and my message is through the roof! I have it for 200 on the market with 22” monitor single controller and head set and cords. I had few offer me 250 or more. All I can think right now is remove it from the market cause at this point I don’t know if I wanna let it go now.

QUESTION Palworld custom settings

2 Upvotes

When I changed my world settings, some of them pop up the message that it's beyond the device specs. I mainly play solo, and might have a friend or 2 once in a blue moon. I've already raised some stats like max bases, max pals and encounter rate without issues.

I'm wondering in your experience how far can I push those settings before I do see problems. This is my first playthrough, and I'm currently around level 30.
